You have the calibre.exe file associated with .ePub files, you need to
associate epub files with ebook-viewer.exe.

Evidently this same error happens when trying to open up the EPUB file via the Recent Documents menu item in Windows.

If the first guide I linked to doesn't help you try any from this
Google search. Please understand that this is a Operating System problem not a calibre problem. I do not experience the "Input file must have an extension" error unless the file does not have an extension.

It is easy to do, we all do it everyday with calibre and multiple other programs.
